Manoto TV switches to Eutelsat satellites

Manoto TV, the Persian-language channel, has completed its switch in SD and HD versions to the Eutelsat 7B satellite operated by Eutelsat Communications. The channel is now available exclusively from Eutelsat’s HotBird satellites and Eutesat 7B that together form a single neighbourhood for Persian-speaking viewers in Europe, the Middle East and Iran.

Broadcasting documentaries, films, series, original entertainment and news, the London-based free-to-air channel owned by Marjan Television Network has rapidly gained market share since its launch in 2010.

Ghassan Murat, Vice President Business Development & Strategy, Eutelsat Middle East said: “Eutelsat is proud to consolidate our exclusive relationship with Manoto TV and in doing so to add to the unrivalled line-up of quality Persian content that viewers can watch using a single dish pointed to our popular HotBird satellites and Eutelsat 7B.”
